The craziest band in the world?

Some of the most entertaining bands around the world don't need to be sophisticated. At Gower Music Tours we research great performance venues across Europe and it's always a delight to discover new and different music performers on our travels.

'La Racchia' from the beautiful medieval town of Sarnano, Italy has been called "The craziest band in the world"

This group of carefree and somewhat eccentric members is led by a conductor with a serving spoon!

And so it is armed with their makeshift instruments (saucepan lids, cheese graters etc) alongside more traditional wind instruments, this unique band of Italian gentlemen entertain the locals and tourists alike at various fetes and festivals around the region of Le Marche.
